What the club says: Spread over 6002 yards with 18 holes and par 71, Bulbury Woods Golf Course, is as tight as it's tricky and the lush, tree-lined fairways, the unexpected bunkers, twists and turns all help to make playing the Bulbury Woods course an unforgettable experience.

This is a quite pleasant course to play .. friendly reception and the winter twilight fee is very cheap indeed.Members were commenting about the course being 'tight' but I've played on a LOT tighter courses that this (my home course too).It was a real shame that the weather had been very unkind indeed to the course and it was totally water-logged when I played it. Many courses would have closed to save the course. The greens had been hollow tined and not rolled so putting was a bit of hop-skip and jump.I'd like to come back and play this course under better weather conditions the next time I visit England. I've rated the course taking into account the weather ..92 strokes - handicap 16.9 .. under the conditions not too unhappy.

Played on a Sunday after noon for eleven quid as a bronze member adds up to excellent value for money. Always a tight course where you cant spray the ball from side to side and still hope to record a good score!!!!

First time for ages have managed to get out on our home course. Despite the showery weather the course was in excellent nick. Not too busy and a very enjoyable round of golf with some reasonable scoring. Looking forward to getting out again real soon !

Played this course on 6th August. Greens had been hollow tined and sanded making them very quick. Narrow fairways requiring accuracy. 2 par 3's grouped together (6 and 7) a little boring but overall an excellent, reasonably priced, day out. Excellent clubhouse with good food and curteous, helpful staff. I will definately play this course again.

Good course and club house very firm ground due to summer weather green did not hold any balls landing had to land short of green for any chance of a putt

First time for a while we had played our home course due to the awful Winter.Other than one or two recovering fairways the course was in excellent nick. Superb value for £12 and not to busy. Perfect weather for golf reflected in the scoring.It's great to actually play a round and get some roll ! Looking forward to playing again real soon.

The course is still recovering after suffering badly last winter, there are still some bare patches especially on the second but hopefully they will recover. With the trees now in full leaf driving straight is a must on a lot of the holes, the club house is very nice and the food is good.

Very wet underfoot , we think the course should have been closed in all honesty. Needless to say ,after a filling breakfast we headed out. Greens had standing water on most of them on the plus side you could attack the pins.Still a good challenge and a really nice maturing course although some "samey length holes" could do with a few bunkers or hazards in the home stretch.
